New Development - MS Access

Today Data & Web Services can develop a custom MS Access
database for you, a company department, or your entire firm
that will feature a robust and easy to use interface, rock solid
data storage, manipulation, and retrieval, and user-friendly reports.
Why choose MS Access? It is a first-class tool for customers looking
for rapid development at a low cost. MS Access is ideal for a single user
application to store, manipulate, and report on important company data.
In addition, by incorporating MS SQL Server, or another database system of your choice,
it can be much more. MS Access can allow your entire office to collaborate via a familiar
interface over your network. Numerous companies utilize MS Access and MS SQL Server to develop
everything from simple organizational record keeping tools to more sophisticated Customer
Relationship Management and Enterprise Resource Planning systems.

Enhance, Troubleshoot Existing Products - Visual Basic 6

Do you have a VB6 application
that doesn't run on the latest Windows operating system?
Do you have 3rd party controls that used
to work, but now, mysteriously, do not? Do you simply need to
update or add new features in your VB6 application? We can handle
all of this for you.

Did you know that, at one time, Visual
Basic 6 was the most popular programming language in the world.
As a matter of fact, during its heyday, there was more classic
Visual Basic code written and running than any other code around.
When Microsoft transitioned developers out of COM/DCOM to .Net,
most new Visual Basic development work transitioned as well.
However, there are still thousands of companies running legacy
Visual Basic 6 programs, who still need their application functionality,
but do not want to rewrite everything in a new language.

Unfortunately, Microsoft, and other 3rd party vendors,
have made this difficult. Windows XP was the last operating system
ideally suited for VB6 programs. If you are running a more recent version
of a Windows operating system, you will need either a Virtual Machine, XP Mode,
or Compatibility Mode to run and/or maintain your Visual Basic 6 applications.
Worse yet, you may find that your VB6 programs were written with 3rd party controls,
many of which closed their doors years ago or no longer support legacy products.
Without the original 3rd party control software, which may have been lost,
any tweaks you want to make to your code cannot be compiled.

Do not worry though.
We are experts with Visual Basic 6 and related 3rd party controls. If you need help with
a legacy VB6 app, whether it is a simple update and recompile of the code, or if you need
help finding a now non-existent 3rd party control, or if you need assistance transitioning
from old 3rd party controls to something better, we can do it all.
